detailed solution

Correct option is A

It changes to +3 in Cr2(SO4)33e−+Cr6+⟶Cr3+ (reduction) (acts as oxidant)Whereas O in CrO5 changes to O22O⊝⟶O2+2e− (oxidation) (acts of reductant)So, CrO5 acts as oxidant and reductant both.and also it is intramolecular redox reaction since in CrO5, both Cr and O undergoes oxidation and reduction reaction.
